radiator screw

My car overheated and I unscrewed that small screw at the front of the car to release are and it fell deep into the engine bay and I had to drive to work so im pretty sure its gone. Where can I get a replacement. Preferably locally. Thanks

How do you expect us to help you find one 'locally' if you don't tell us where you are?

By local I meant like a national chain such as auto zone and what not. But by some twist of luck the screw didn't fall out til I got to work so it was waiting for me

Go to your local dealer or order one from ECS or Pelican parts.

Same screw for the Cooper and Cooper S on the Gen 1 MINI.

Hopefully you did not hurt the threads on the coolant tube side under pressure and a new one will twist back in.

We have them in stock here if you cannot find one local. We carry the brass one also. Just click the link.
